and/or McCain doesn't. McCain is questionable, his health has been in questionable lately.

Shadegg (House) and Kyl (Senate) are pretty much shoo-ins, unfortunately.

Hayworth (R) could be vulnerable to a strong "righty" Dem. Lots of retirees in his district, he won't be popular if SocSec privatization succeeds, and they tend to get organized and active when they are pissed off!

Flake could be vulnerable to a strong, moderate Dem. Franks (R) is a walk, I'm afraid.

Grijalva's (D) popular, he'll retain his seat and so will Pastor (also D). Both are very Left wing, too--the only two Congress Critters AZ Dems can really be proud of. The state party will make sure they have plenty of backing to retain their seats.

Edit: If SocSec privatizatiion succeeds, all bets on the Republicans are off--AZ is heavily populated with retirees throughout the state, and anyone who votes for it will not be looked upon kindly. I suspect our Rs know it and know they will be vulnerable, but they will vote with the pRez anyway. That will be a critical mistake, I suspect.
